Bellator 180 pay-per-view price set at $49.95 for high-definition

The Bellator 180 pay-per-view offering, “Bellator NYC,” will set you back $49.95 for the high-definition version of the company’s second pay-per-view event on June 24 at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Bellator President Scott Coker confirmed the news today to MMAjunkie after an announcement on “The MMA Hour.” A price for the standard definition version of the event is not yet available, Coker added.

The locale of Bellator’s PPV follow-up is lot different, so that could have something to do with the bump in price. Bellator 120 took place at Landers Center in Southaven, Miss., while “Bellator NYC” goes down at the world-famous Madison Square Garden.

Not only that, but the event is headlined by three high-profile, high-dollar draws, including three-time UFC title challenger Chael Sonnen (29-15-1 MMA, 0-1 BMMA), former PRIDE champ Wanderlei Silva (35-12-1 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) and legend Fedor Emelianenko (36-4 MMA 0-0 BMMA). Those fighters augment a pair of title fights and the Spike-televised lead-in to the PPV card.
